    2.3L supercharged?

    i actually bought my mustang with every intention of supercharging it, did more research, i was going to lose power and spend a lot of money doing it, if you were to do one, i'd reccomend doing it to an NA 2.3, running an FMU and water/methanol injection i've talked repeatedly with a guy who...

    Merkur questions...

    the volvos have plastic end tanks and are prone to leaking, and they flow like poo a starion front mount is decently sized and flows very well, thats what i have on my mustang, my truck's IC was custom built and the price tag was $1000, glad it was already on the truck when i bought it :)

    Merkur questions...

    and the whole motorcraft thing is a myth, if you dont use NGK plugs use motorcraft or autolite (same) stock copper plugs cap and rotor arent a big deal, cheap wires are ok just replace them often (lifetime warranty $18 wires) i do prefer to use MSD6, NGk plugs and magnecor wires tho

    NEED 70mm MAF transfer for 5.0 (not 93 cobra)

    its a 2.3T, yes i can change 30 different points on the curve from 0-5v vs flow the only way i can hit the nail on the head is with a datalogging wideband with the rpm extender so i can log the MAF voltage vs AFR....but i dont have $450 it moves pretty decent right now but the tune is way...

    mass air conversion?

    unless you have access to a datalogging wideband with a rpm cable (for the MAF voltage) dont bother....i'm going through hell with this thing

    NEED 70mm MAF transfer for 5.0 (not 93 cobra)

    i'm using yours but trimming the bottom end, this is a 2.3T with a MAF conversion, i have to play with the curve, thats all ive been doing for a week, i burn my own chips btw the one you sent me runs good now except it bogs a little bit while rolling in to the boost, but under WOT, holy...

    Wiring help for MAF

    just match them up in order how your stock plug is, the wires should be in the same order if i were you i'd keep your old plug connected just in case, i've got the old and new style MAF plug on mine, i may put the stock VAM meter plug back on mine too in case i ever go back to stock

    NEED 70mm MAF transfer for 5.0 (not 93 cobra)

    what other 70mm do you have?? that one you sent enabled me to put timing back where i wanted it and not ping all the way thru 4th gear however its horribly rich under little to no load, any idea where in the voltage scale it changes from "la-dee-da" to "gimme more fuel dammit"

    the thing with the 2 vac hoses is the boost controller solenoid, ditch it and run a manual boost controller
